Chapter 433

Secret Longing: A Second Chance at Love (Evelyn) novel

The silence stretched, thick and heavy.

Evelyn could hear the faint rustle of fabric as someone shifted uncomfortably. A glass clinked nervously against a table.

She tilted her head, listening intently. The tension was palpable even through the wall.

Alexander crossed his legs, his posture relaxed yet commanding. His sharp gaze swept across the room, daring anyone to break the silence first.

Evelyn smiled to herself, recognizing that familiar, intimidating aura.

Some things never changed.

The snack suddenly tasted sweeter.

She leaned back against the wall, content to wait.

Whatever was about to unfold, it promised to be interesting.

Very interesting indeed.
